What else can I help you with?
How do you show proof of ownership for a firearm if you don't have the receipt?
The firearm dealer has a record of each sale. He must keep these records for review by the ATF/ATFE on demand. From these records, the dealer can provide the manufacturer, along with the serial number of the firearm and the sale date and to whom it was sold. If it was a private sale between individuals, there may be a record or there may not.
What happens to the records after a person buys a firearm?
The dealer is required to retain them for 20 years. If, at any point before the 20 years that dealer shuts down their business (or it is shut down), those records are turned into (or confiscated by) the BATFE.
Is there any way to obtain sales or ownership info on a firearm purchased several years ago if the receipt is unavailable and the dealer is out of business?
This depends on whether the dealer just folded or if the business was bought out by someone. A dealer going out of business is required to surrender his records to the ATF. If he is bought out, the buyer can keep the records, or he can choose to surrender them to the ATF anyway. You may try to contact ATF about those records.

where do you register a firearm in Missouri?
In Missouri, there is no requirement to register firearms at the state level, as the state does not maintain a firearm registry. However, if you purchase a firearm from a licensed dealer, a background check will be conducted. For private sales, while registration is not required, it's advisable to keep records of the transaction for personal documentation. Always check local ordinances, as some cities may have their own regulations regarding firearms.
